    guys , we had a great time dukin it out with about 20 or so other slobbering , cusing , ferocious , cart pushing , octapi , hoarding , gimmie gimmie , loud , pushy , swiping , trading , fools !

    really it was a pleasant time . things went well . kim and i stood back while vperozo and the rest of the fools pushed and grabed what they were after . when the dust settled and everyone counted their goodies , we swooped in . getting the few items we wanted . kim wanted the chick figs (its her birthday ) and i wanted the 12 inch figs . we got what we wanted .


    there was no blood , and i met a few cool people . the crowd actualy helped each other ! i was shocked .


    i hope you guys have a good experiance as well !

    happy hunting

    I got everything that I was looking for... all for $75 over budget!

    I am missing one thing, so I think I'll still be with Chunk at 5:30. I'm not getting any sleep tonight, anyway.

    I must say that the new figures are really cool.

    A WARNING!!! I'm not taking too close of a look at the new figures. I'm told there are spoilers galore on the back. I noticed that Count Dooku has a green lightsaber packed with his red one. I wonder why? But I'm not about to read it when I can see it in just 22 days.

    #1 Anakin Skywalker (Outland Peasant Disguise)
    #2 Padmé Amidala (Arena Escape)
    #3 Obi-Wan Kenobi (Coruscant Chase)
    #4 C-3PO (Protocol Droid)
    #5 Kit Fisto (Jedi Master)
    #6 Super Battle Droid
    #7 Boba Fett (Kamino Escape)
    #8 Tusken Raider Female with Tusken Child
    #9 Captain Typho (Padmé's Head of Security)
    #10 Shaak Ti (Jedi Master)
    #11 Battle Droid (Arena Battle)
    #12 Plo Koon (Arena Battle)
    #13 Jango Fett (Kamino Escape)
    #14 R2-D2 (Coruscant Sentry)
    Deluxe Jango Fett

    I have to say that I was getting nervous when I first got there. They only had a few figures out and there was a guy who didn't seem to know much about the movie at all, and he was just grabbing like 3 of each thing. And his buddy, bought multiples of EVERYTHING! I swear, he bought like 8 cases. There were plenty of stuff left but those two guys alone wiped out the entire stock of Jedi Starfighters and Slave I, so I grabbed one fast before Jedi Nova got there so he'd have one. All in all everything was awesome and i had a good time :)

    Well heres what I got....

    Anakin Hanger Duel
    Royal Guard
    Clonetrooper
    Count Dooku Dark Lord

    TIE BOMBER!!!!!! WOO HOOO!!!!!!


    Kinda fuuny how some of the people were asking me "Is that all your getting?"

    There were plenty of Slave 1s to be had at that Wal Mart we went to. I dont think I saw a single person put on in their cart, and it was $5 cheaper to boot!

    I wonder if they sell the 14 figure cases for those figs. Because I want one. I must have all of these Basic figures!!! I was pleased with the first case, now I must have the other one too!!! They're pretty damn cool for basic figs. The Ransformer Basic figures totally sucked for Beast Machines so I was worried for these but man, these EpII Basics are just awesome :)

    Joe, there were plenty of Clone troopers at Wal Mart the others may be a bit harder. I think they ran out of Dexster, Luminara, Taun We and Yoda.

    I'm getting a few extras because the guys that packed my case sucked. and Jango has a bent card so I'm gonna get a fresh one soon and just open that one :) I decided to keep them in the package to display on the wall :) My pops was like "why are you getting them? They aren't worth anything!!" and i said "it's not about what they're worth, it's about what I like. I like star wars and I like figures. And I'm buying figures to collect them, not to sell them" I want them to be in somewhat good condition when they're on the wall :)

    Probably not, I'm probably going to go right to sleep when I get home. Being out that late last night really screwed me over lol I might go down to the mall/bookstore around 7 anyway though to get the novel and the graphic novel as well. I need to get this Jango Fett comic to you too!
